Chapter 3: What's Happened?

April is lost. She has no idea where she is.

I woke up with a sharp pain in my left shoulder. Everything hurt, my whole body. Tears were running down my cheeks. I tried to stand up, but I couldn't, my body was just too sore. Whenever I tried to move everything just hurt more and I started crying more. What was going on? Where was I? What just happened? All I could remember was making weekend plans with Cindy and Amy. My books and my purse weren't here. Nothing was here. Nothing but me and the clothes on my back. It took all of my stregnth, but I stood up. It was extremely painful. I was crying harder now, from the pain.
I started hearing voices.
"Oh my gosh! April are you okay?" It was Cindy.

"No!" I yelled, "No, I'm not where am I? I'm in horrible pain!"

I heard a loud, long, earpiercing shriek. "Amy! Amy can you hear me? Wake up! Please?" It was Amy. I could feel her hands on mine but I didn't see her, or her hands on mine.

"I can hear you! I'm wide awake! What the hell is going on?" I screamed but I got no response

"Oh, I'm so sorry! I'm so, so sorry! Somebody call an ambulance!" An unfamiliar voie called out.

"Wait, why do you need an ambulance, what's going on?" I said, loudly.

I started running through the room, looking for walls or an end. I kept on running and running. The voices wouldn't stop.

"April, April, can you hear me? An ambulance is coming! It's going to be okay." The voice of my principal told me, frantically.

I kept on running and then stopped. I fell to my knees and started bawling. I screamed out and no one responded at all. There was just the long echo of my voice. The long white room didn't end. I determined that after running around everywhere. I had a sharp migraine headache. Everything around me seemed like it was just falling apart. Was I dead? Could this be heaven? What happened to me? I can't seem to remember. Why couldn't I remember? I had so many questions. I tried so hard to remember, but I couldn't think of anything. It just made me more frustrated. It made me cry more. My whole body was shaking and sweaty. My throat hurt from screaming. Everything hurt. I didn't like it here. It scared me.

"Yes!" I hollered, "I can hear you! But why can't you hear me? Why is there a f*****g ambulance coming? Why? It can't be okay!" The tears started pouring more, as I started crying harder and harder. I rubbed tears and mascara off of my eyes. I had a salty taste in my mouth from crying.

"It can't be okay," I whispered, "It just can't be."
